[Click above to embiggen: a real life, firsthand account of trying to expose crimes that were covered-up by local public officials and employees, when all the local public entities circled the wagons in an ideological effort to hide crimes from public scrutiny. The exact same thing is being done regarding voter fraud at the local level too!]

Joel Pollak has an essay up today on Breitbart that I think does what Republicans always do…in that they for some reason never want to tell the full, unvarnished truth that Americans are desperate to hear from anyone in the political world. His essay, “How the Election is ‘Rigged’ — And How It Is Not,” does that thing that the GOP loves to do where someone will say, “Oh, it’s too dangerous to talk about that (even if the thing is true).” I like Pollak a lot generally, but he is no Andrew Breitbart. If Andrew was still around, I believe he would be calling this election flat-out rigged. Here’s why:

There may not be a giant spider sitting under the US Capitol pulling strings to rig the election nation-wide, but that doesn’t mean that at the local level Democrat operatives don’t decide for themselves to rig elections every way they can (and then other Democrats circle the wagons and cover up everything to protect their friends and colleagues). One thing I notice Republicans do that leads to them losing arguments is that they cede points unnecessarily, especially when Democrats use straw men to box them into corners like that. The Party of Stupid keeps doing the same things but expecting different results in this way (which is why so many people are sick of the Party of Stupid).

With voter fraud, Republicans love to values-signal by standing up and saying “there is no national effort to rig elections because we can’t find evidence of that.” First of all, Democrats are really good at hiding things and Republicans are awful at uncovering things, so just because Republicans can’t prove something does not mean that Democrats are not doing it. The Democrat Party is really like Loki, the trickster god in Norse Mythology: you need to just always assume it is getting away with something horrible today that you are not aware of because you are not as smart at figuring out what they are doing as they are at hiding what they are up to.

I want to use an analogy involving the firsthand on-the-ground work that Megan Fox and I did in recent years in Orland Park, where we went up against elected Democrats in office and the George Soros-funded lobbying group The American Library Association (ALA), all of whom worked to conceal sex crimes and even the accessing of child pornography that was going on at one affluent suburban library in Chicagoland. This is the subject of the book that Megan and I put out, SHUT UP!: The Bizarre War that One Public Library Waged Against the First Amendment.

Megan and I had this library dead to rights: we used the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) to obtain the library’s own official internal documents, which kept a record of library employees choosing for many years not to call the police when patrons reported masturbation happening in the computer lab, creeps stalking women and children sexually in the library, a man trapping a woman inside a study room and sexually accosting her through the glass terrifying her, three witnesses reporting a man openly viewing child pornography (which he admitted to doing!) on the library’s computers, and other horrors.

The library’s clear strategy involved never reporting any of this because then there would be a police record and the local media might print that in the police blotter in the newspaper…and if that happened then there was a chance that someone like Drudge would see that and make it a big national headline. Every once in a while something like that happens, where Drudge links to a local story about something vile happening in a public library…and all hell breaks loose for the people in the library who were covering up the terrible things.

When Megan and I confronted the public officials in Orland Park about what we discovered, all these Democrats closed ranks and circled the wagons. They told the police chief to harass us to scare us away from our investigation. Megan and her children were threatened with violence by library staffers and their family members. The library board encouraged an employee to file a SLAPP lawsuit against us, so that we would have to spend time and money defending ourselves against that (which they hoped would make us give up our investigation into the wrongdoing going on in that messed-up place). In the end, we were able to convince the Illinois Attorney General’s office that this library was breaking the law left and right and we also prevailed in two lawsuits against both the library and the Village of Orland Park that forced them to stop breaking the law and violating the public’s rights.

As an analogy for what happens with voter fraud at the local level, I want to highlight some of what happened to us in the above. Just watch how obvious it is what Democrats do in situations like these.

* Megan and I noticed that something didn’t seem right. This is analogous to someone noticing that voter fraud is happening.

* Megan and I compiled evidence and presented it to elected officials at a public meeting; the elected officials didn’t want what they were doing to be uncovered, so they attacked, harassed, threatened, and tried to destroy us to shut us up. This is analogous to the relentless attacks made on anyone who talks about voter fraud, which is why I think guys like Pollak are so timid when it comes to taking on this issue aggressively. Pollak appears wary of being discredited/maligned for talking about a subject that the Establishment does not want talked about…because people in the Establishment want the status quo to continue and they do not want the boat to be rocked.

* No one at any national level was telling the people who work at the Orland Park Public Library to look the other way and not report sex crimes or child porn viewing happening in that building…but no one at a national level had to tell them that, because the people who work at that messed-up library just ideologically WANT to cover things like this up since they do not have the moral compass that would lead them to whistle-blow and expose what is happening. This is a very important thing that Republicans and writers like Pollak don’t seem to grasp: that no one has to give orders or plan this stuff out. Ideologically, people who marinate in Democrat politics learn along the way that if there is a problem then you cover it up because that’s for the greater good of all the things that ideologically Democrats want to accomplish. So, when Democrats see that child porn is being allowed to be viewed in a public library when that is a federal crime, the people who work at the library realize that if anyone found out about that happening that the library would be harmed (because it’s reputation would suffer, people would realize it is not really a safe place for children, and maybe it would lose grants and taxpayer dollars because the public would be angry that the staff allowed these things to keep happening in there). Democrats hide bad things and cover stuff up because they believe that this is better than the public ever finding out about what’s happening…because covering it up means everyone keeps their jobs and keeps their funding and in the big scheme of things keeping that library flush with cash is more important than making sure it is never used for viewing child pornography in the computer lab.

* The media relentlessly refused to ever report on the fact that the library’s own internal incident reports showed that library staff were covering up all these crimes…and that the Orland Park Police Chief, Timothy J. McCarthy, didn’t seem to care in the least that this was happening. Instead, we documented how Chief McCarthy used police resources to harass Megan and me to shut us up. Orland Park went after the whistleblowers and steadfastly refused to clean up everything awful happening in that library. Megan and I had to take both the library and the Village to count and beat them in two lawsuits for anything to change. But, still — to this very day — we have to continue watching that place like a hawk and FOIA-ing them to see if any incidents are happening that they don’t report to the police. We also watch their spending closely, because before we started auditing them the library staff was using taxpayer money to go out for $500 steak dinners, take trips to New York City for fun, throw themselves $5,000 parties, and make taxpayers pay for their snack cakes and sweet treats and Subway sandwiches on a rolling basis (instead of buying their own food, like every other working person has to do). We also caught these people using taxpayer money to buy gold jewelry for trustees (who are prohibited by law from accepting compensation) and run up big tabs for other jewelry store purchases as gifts for staff.

It took two whole years of relentless hard work month after month to force those crooks to give back the gold and the money they stole and for the Village and that library to comply with the law. They fought us like they were demons being doused with holy water, scratching and biting and clawing the whole time. And everyone in the Village circled the wagons and protected each other…even though most of these people probably didn’t know what was going on at the library.

The problem is that when they were informed that library staffers were doing terrible things, instead of coming out against the terrible things and wanting to put a stop to it these Democrats’ natural instinct was to cover everything up and threaten/harass/attack the whistleblowers.

They denied that child porn was ever accessed (even though we had the incident reports showing it was). They lied about the sex crimes never happening (despite former library employees coming forward and confirming what was going on for years). They refused to acknowledge the authority of the Attorney General when she told them they were breaking the law and they needed to stop. Instead of stopping, these Orland Park officials blew raspberries and said that the Attorney General had no power over them. It took going before a judge and filing lawsuits against these monsters for them to finally stop…because their insurance companies got involved and took one look at what they were doing and MADE THEM STOP before the judge ordered them to stop.

All of this same stuff is happening with voter fraud. Count on it.

Here’s how it’s happening and why the election truly is rigged, whether Pollak wants to see this or not:

A.) Democrat operatives on the ground, working independently in their local communities, see some door left unguarded and realize they could get away with voting in the names of dead people or sick people or elderly people. Maybe this has been going on for decades and it is now institutionalized because they’ve always gotten away with it and that’s just how things are done. This is similar to how at the Orland Park Public Library the corrupt culture in that place created an environment where staff just knew they had to turn their heads and not call the police when child porn was accessed, because the library staffers felt that the greater good required them to overlook crimes happening in front of them.

B.) People at local boards of election must know that fraud is happening, but they look the other way because they do not want their community to be embarrassed if the fraud was reported. They don’t want people to lose their jobs and they don’t want to bring shame to their area. This is similar to the Orland Park public employees who knew for years that sex crimes were allowed to happen in that place, but no one wanted to embarrass their community or see anyone get fired. So, covering it all up and keeping quiet was better in their minds and they rationalized it by thinking “well, that only happened once or twice” or “no one has been raped, so someone being creepy isn’t so bad” or “no one really gets hurt if someone is looking at child porn and who is to say what is porn anyway?” This is how Democrats think.

C.) Local officials circle the wagons. All public employees stick together with a union mentality. If the public employees at the library are in trouble for covering up crimes, the public employees over at the police department don’t want to investigate or put a stop to what is going on…because those are their fellow public employees. They all stuff their faces together at the Holiday Party and they sit beside one another at picnic tables for the summer cookouts. They all enjoy the same platinum-encrusted benefits and pensions and all that. So all of these public employees feel that if one branch of public employees is exposed for lawbreaking and wrongdoing, then it’s bad for all of them. They see the world as Us (the public employees who get fat off the hog) versus Them (the public, which all of the public employees hate).

D.) The entire hierarchy of government does not want to ever investigate itself or prosecute public officials or public employees for wrongdoing. Megan and I caught the Orland Park Public Library Board of Trustees and management willfully violating the Open Meetings Act. Violations of the Open Meetings Act are misdemeanor crimes in Illinois. The Attorney General concluded that, YES, the library trustees and other public officials did indeed break the law. That means the Attorney General stated they had committed crimes. Orland Park Police Chief Timothy J. McCarthy refused to do a damn thing about that. The State’s Attorney, Anita Alvarez, refused to do anything about that. The Attorney General’s office said that if the local police and the state’s attorney wouldn’t prosecute that lawbreaking board, then the AG’s office wouldn’t get involved either.

E.) The media likes to claim that there is no evidence of voter fraud happening because there are no convictions for voter fraud and the police aren’t turning up incidents of voter fraud. But look how aggressively the corrupt public officials in Orland Park hid what was going on there…and how all these higher levels of Illinois government refused to prosecute the public officials in Orland Park when they were caught dead to rights violating the law? Everyone in government wanted all of this to go away…and for Megan and I to be silenced so that we would not tell anyone about what we had uncovered. We wrote a book about all this…and the American Library Association actively works to suppress the book and keep other public libraries from carrying it…because they do not want people to know everything that we uncovered in Orland Park.

Republicans need to talk about how Democrats cover for each other and how public bodies should not get to decide that other public bodies should not be prosecuted.

We really need some kind of independent, private, third-party, autonomous entity that would be in charge of looking for wrongdoing being committed or covered-up by public employees. Because the police in this country are corrupt in localities such as Orland Park, where they feel that it is Us vs. Them and they will never move against their fellow public bodies. The federal government doesn’t care about the local level, because they always have bigger fish to fry, allegedly. Also, most federal agencies are obsessed with drugs and getting convictions related to drug trafficking or weapons smuggling. Things like child porn being openly allowed to be viewed in a public library or voter fraud at the local and county level is too small a fish for the Feds.

In short, here’s what it all boils down to:

1.) Voter fraud is happening more places than there is official documentation, because the corruption in this country is so endemic that local public bodies cannot be trusted to stop wrongdoing and lawbreaking at the local level. Orland Park proves that. Megan and I wrote the book on that.

2.) The Media works to protect government and not report anything that hurts Democrats. This means that even if someone out there discovers voter fraud is happening and can prove it, our Media in this country will ignore it or will try to help the government bodies involved by attacking the whistle-blowers. Our Media really is a state propaganda operation that should never be trusted.

3.) No national, coordinated effort is needed to direct local bodies to allow voter fraud or participate in it, just as there is no national effort needs to tell local public libraries to look the other way when sex crimes are happening in those buildings. The Democrats who work in these places just automatically look the other way. Ideologically, this is what their first instinct is and there is no mechanism in place to correct that instinct.

4.) The public doesn’t know what to do when they encounter wrongdoing. They usually call the police, but then the police say they won’t do anything about the terrible thing that’s happened because they have murders that are unsolved and it’s too small of a fish for them to care about (voter fraud, sex crimes in a library, etc.) If the public contacts the Media, the Media won’t care because they don’t want to make the local public bodies look bad. If someone is persistent and goes to state or federal authorities, the person will hear that they need to go to the local police and file a complaint…and see how that is a circle? It always ends up with the local police not wanting to investigate the voter fraud or the sex crime at the library…but higher up in the hierarchy people will be told that if the local police don’t care then there’s nothing anyone can do, because that’s not what their department does or it is out of their jurisdiction.

This means that if public officials are involved in wrongdoing and the public catches them, 98% of the time the other public officials can circle the wagons and keep any of this from ever making news. Troublemakers who blow the whistle then get targeted for destruction to ensure that other people will be too scared to speak out.

We may have written about the lengths that local government went to hide crimes that were happening in the local public library…but you can see that all of this is analogous to local government officials and the Media and other players also working to keep the true extent of voter fraud hidden as well.

It is all rigged because we the people decided to stop scrutinizing and supervising local government. We ceded too much power to local officials, many of whom are sickeningly corrupt.

None of this is going to change until you start paying attention to what is happening in all of your local government departments. But, of course, there’s so many of those that most people don’t even know where to start. Megan and I started with one corrupt library board and it took the two of us two years to bring about change. Most people would have given up…which is why all kind of horrors like voter fraud keep happening.

Hillary Clinton does not intend to change any of this. Donald Trump says that he will. To me, there’s an easy choice to be made if you care about ever changing our corrupt system and putting an end to the Establishment’s circle-the-wagons-and-cover-it-all-up approach to hiding the Establishment’s own crimes.

Here’s another rhetorical question with an obvious answer (“NO!”), but will anyone ever do a damn thing about voter fraud in this country?

James O’Keefe recently busted a New York City election commissioner admitting that voter fraud happens there all the time…and to such an extent that it makes even him sick, and he’s a Democrat.

Republicans are terrified of talking about voter fraud because Democrats call them racist when they do. That’s because Democrats like to say that black people are too stupid to get IDs and that’s why IDs can’t be asked for at polling places. Because that’s not racist or anything, Democrats saying that black people are too dumb to get state-issued IDs to verify who the hell they actually are.

Every election, Democrats cry that voter fraud is a myth but that’s not true. During the 2008 primaries when I went to all kinds of states supporting Hillary Clinton, we saw voter fraud rampant in every place that held a caucus. The Obama campaign would literally bus in college students from other states to vote in the caucuses and throw them to Obama. He won almost every caucus state that way.

Now, in 2016, Hillary won’t talk about any of this because Obama people are running her 2016 campaign. After the 2008 election, there was hope that Hillary Clinton would lead an effort to reform the primary system and get rid of those damn caucuses…but clearly she chose not to, since in 2016 she had Obama people helping her and they love the caucuses because of how easy it is to cheat in them.

In the general election, Democrats will be busing homeless people and union stooges to different places to vote multiple times.

Another thing that Democrats are doing is asking for absentee ballots from their home states, but they will also be voting in whatever state they currently live in as well. This is especially true for college students.

Democrats will vote in the names of people who live in nursing homes. That’s an easy one, because people who are mentally deficit due to dementia or other ills will have no idea that Democrats asked for absentee ballots in their names and voted for them.

In every city controlled by Democrats, Spanish-speakers and other illegals will be allowed to vote when they are not citizens, especially if Democrats have given them IDs of some kind.

I believe that in most polling places there are people who come in from the Democrat Party and vote in the names of people who have not yet shown up to vote or who are dead. I don’t know how anyone would stop that, seeing as how no IDs are ever checked. So, Democrats just have a list of dead people or elderly people or people who never vote but are registered…and then they have someone walk in with that person’s name and address and someone votes as that person.

I’m stumped as to what it will take for anyone to do anything about this.

The only thing I can think of is that if Donald Trump starts making a lot of noise about this and echoing what James O’Keefe has been saying since his latest video release then maybe it will get some traction.

I have to say that I have zero faith in the integrity of elections in this country because I’ve seen firsthand how the Left cheats. I live in Chicago and I see so many ways that Democrats here create opportunities for voter fraud in our elections.

I hope you are someone who is starting to get angry about this and that you believe this is unacceptable. The lie that Democrats always say that this is not happening has to become a lie that no one tolerates any longer. Some of these states will come down to a few thousand votes…and that seems like it sure would be easy to steal with voter fraud in just a handful of counties.

I bet that Pennsylvania is determined every election by voter fraud in Pittsburgh and Philadelphia. I believe that voter fraud in Chicago is enough to swing Illinois every election as well. If not for voter fraud, I think that Mitt Romney would have been president in 2012.

Voter fraud is such a slap in the face of everything that America is supposed to stand for…yet it only ever gets talked about as an election is upon us…and then after the election everyone forgets about it and moves on to other things.

What would happen if this time we didn’t follow that same old pattern? What if we made combating voter fraud something we all kept caring about and made it a hobby and sphere of interest?

What would it take to get powerful people interest in cleaning up all the fraud once and for all?

The Media always claims that voter fraud is not real and that you should just trust that nothing bad is happening with our elections, but anecdotal evidence always points to ongoing shenanigans. A recent article over at RealClearPolitics states that 50% of Trump voters believe the election is crooked and rigged. My life experience leads me to believe 100% that our elections are tampered with. Here’s why:

1. Back in 1992, I was still in high school and was unable to vote, as I was not yet 18. My grandfather had died in 1989, she he had been dead more than three years by the time the 1992 November presidential election rolled around. When my mother, grandmother and I went to the polling place in our neighborhood for them to vote, the woman checking the rolls offered to let me vote for my grandfather…once she checked that my mother and grandmother were voting for Bill Clinton. She saw my grandfather’s name still listed, even though he was dead, and she said that “no one would know” if I went ahead and vote for him. I didn’t do it, but I could easily have done it. I bet this kind of thing still happens to this day.

2. Once I started voting Republican in elections, a weird thing started happening with my registration. I would show up to my neighborhood polling place on election day, but I would be told that I was not registered at that polling place anymore and that my registration was way across town. So they would not let me vote where I had always voted…and wanted me to go to a sketchy part of town to vote instead, even though I had always voted at the location that I always went to. Not having a car and having to walk far and take a bus or two to get to the other location they wanted me to go to, I had to fill out some kind of provisional ballot when I balked at going all the way over to the other place. I never felt that the provisional ballot I cast was even counted. I believe 100% they did this to me because I had voted Republican and this was a punishment or a way of them decreasing Republican votes.

3. The fact that they make such a big deal about NOT checking any IDs to me is proof that the voter fraud is based on people voting as other people or voting for dead people. There’s no valid reason not to check an ID, since our IDs are checked every time you go to the bank and talk to a teller or go to a bar in Chicago. You need an ID to get into any government building here. You need an ID to get on an airplane. The only time you don’t need an ID is when you are pretending to be someone else, or someone who is dead, and voting for that person.

4. College kids brag all the time about how they are still registered to vote in their home states (and they vote absentee that way) but then they also vote in the state that they go to college. So they cast two votes. They openly brag about doing this. Many Millennials living in Chicago also brag about still being registered in their parents’ home states but also being registered in Chicago too, so they vote twice every year. They’ve been doing this for years. Since the states don’t communicate or compare voter rolls, that’s how fraud is happening.

These are just four things I’ve personally encountered that don’t even get into what could be happening behind the scenes with the machine counting or computer storing of the votes. The tee-vee show Scandalhad a big plot point about rigging the election by changing the votes in just one county, Defiance County, in Ohio during a pivotal presidential election in that tee-vee world. I think people who write for television are not really that imaginative and most things that make it into a show are based on things that really happened in our world. The Media aggressively covers up everything bad that our government does on a daily basis…so I have zero faith that the Media would ever accurately report on voter fraud. Reporters all seem to be taught that their job is to write stories that manage the public…because they all look down upon and have great contempt for the “deplorable” public. The Media sees itself as part of the elite, which includes the government, and the elite must control and manage the deplorable public with consistent and overlapping lies.

I have absolutely zero faith in our election system and believe 100% that it is rigged. And I have felt that way since at least 2008. Someday, someone like WikiLeaks is going to prove this and expose what’s happening and it will all come crashing down. As painful and traumatic as that will be, it really does need to happen so we can have the national catharsis that has been brewing for decades.

He lives in Chicago with his boyfriend Justin.

I have very little faith in the security or integrity of our elections and I believe 100% that our elections are rigged in this country. I just can’t prove it and I can’t tell you exactly how they do it, but I believe that the 1960 election was stolen from Nixon and handed to Kennedy by the first Mayor Daley (where dead people by the scores voted for JFK) and the Democrat Machine in Chicago continues to this day to knowingly allow voter fraud to benefit Democrats and keep Illinois in that “blue” column. Republicans know it too, but go along with it for some reason.

I believe there is voter fraud happening all the time and not just in Chicago. It’s happening where you live too, you can count on it. I don’t think either party wants to ever do anything about it, because if Democrats cheat in one way a certain year, then Republicans will want to be able to use that cheating mechanism in the future. I don’t know how to fix any of this, but I find it hard to believe that your bank can know to the penny how much money you have and that you never seem to be given MORE money than you really have…so even with credit cards and online purchases and debits to mobile apps, banks are able to keep track of every penny you spend (and never give you more than you should be given…and never forget to deduct something that needed to be deducted). If all of this can be managed to the penny so efficiently, then why is our voting system so hard to audit and check for accuracy?

Simple: the Powers That Be just don’t want the voting system to ever be audited for accuracy and they want no paper trail showing where the fraud happens in each election.

In the Chicago area, there is a wonderful woman named Sharon Meroni who runs a group called Defend the Vote. Through the years, Meroni has inspected and audited the vote-county system in Chicago and Cook County. (There is a City of Chicago Board of Elections and a Cook County Board of Elections, as well as a State of Illinois Board of Elections.) Her website is a treasure trove of information about various shenanigans she has uncovered through the years. She’s a remarkable and tireless woman who took on all of this mostly on her own, uncovering more than anyone before her about the inner working of the election system in Chicagoland.

Every time I vote in Chicago, I think about where the voter fraud could be happening and in my opinion I don’t think it’s happening after you cast your ballot. Defend the Vote looked at the 2012 election in particular, inspecting the vote counting, and I don’t think that any political operatives are monkeying with the vote tallies from the counting machines. In my opinion, I think the fraud is happening with people who are allowed to register to vote who are not really citizens and also people voting for other people (who they know will never actually vote on their own).

This happens, I think, because no one wants to see your ID at a polling place in Chicago. When I voted earlier this week, I had my ID out as I entered the line and the election worker handing out clipboards reacted like he was a vampire and I was holding a garlic-scented crucifix that squirted holy water. He was horrified that I was holding my ID and he told me to put it away. Now, if you walk into any bank or other government office in our state or try to enter any bar, you will be asked for your ID. You can’t even DEPOSIT money into your account at the bank without showing a teller your ID and no government worker will talk to you about whatever you need to talk about unless you have an ID proving who you are.

But the election workers forcefully tell you to not have your ID out when you are there to vote. They will make you put it away.

So, basically, voter fraud can be committed by just sending people into a polling places, giving the worker a name, and then stating that person’s address. The poll workers do make you say an address and they match the name and address to what they have on file. To me, this means that Democrats can just have a big list of people and their addresses…and they could send people into polling places to vote as those people. I don’t think there’s any way that anyone could stop this or later prove it happened.

Just think of all the old people or people in jail or otherwise incapacitated that have other people voting in their names. How would they know it happened? People who died but are still on the voter rolls could also have people walking in and voting as them. To me, this is how voter fraud is happening and no one seems interested in stopping it. Having to show a valid state ID would eliminate this problem.

Every adult is required to have a state ID and I believe that state ID cards are either free or a nominal cost. The state ID really should be free if it’s not already, since we’re all required to have an ID. They can charge something for a driver’s license, but the basic state ID card should be free (if it’s not already). That removes the argument that black people can’t afford to get an ID or don’t know how to get an ID or whatever cockamamie excuse is given for why Democrats say requiring an ID to vote is racist. Democrats of course only say that because they want to keep the voter fraud alive and continue to allow dead people to vote. Read the rest of this entry »

Since we’re all taking a bit of a break post-election, this open thread may serve for a couple of days.

I’m watching two things very closely right now:

Stories on Voter Fraud

Particularly in Allen West’s district. This picture says it all:

Voter Fraud?

Of course, the left would have us believe that the security of our elections is beyond reproach. Move along folks, nothing to see here…

The Petraeus / Benghazi Saga

This is the most interesting story in the news right now, and with good reason. The more information that comes out, the more I am convinced that there is much more to this story yet to be revealed.

Based on the currently available information, it appears that Petraeus may have been blackmailed into supporting the Obama administration’s claim that the Benghazi attack was the result of a YouTube video. At the very least, it’s clear that Petraeus had a reason to not piss off the administration in hopes that he might keep his job despite the affair.

It also appears that since Petraeus stepped up and resigned (at the request of the Obama administration), and did so without incident (so far), that Petraeus may have a larger reason not to make waves. One possibility is that the affair began while he was in the military, which would mean potential prosecution and demotion (which would mean a reduction in retirement pay, I’m sure).

It looks like Petraeus is going to testify to Congress behind closed doors after all. That should be interesting.

I’m also wondering how/why General Allen’s name suddenly started floating around in connection with this story. There’s no reason whatsoever that Allen’s name should have been released. That seems 100% intentional, which begs the question, why? Is Allen being smeared on purpose and, if so, by whom? Why are so many of the military’s top people dropping at the same time?

Is it possible that the Obama administration is intentionally smearing the military as a way to push through military spending cuts? Or some other, even more nefarious purpose?

As Kevin pointed out, his “friend” was seriously considering going underground. Yes, it was me. LOL…I admit I’ve been in a fog of shock and horror for the last week. But after copious amounts of macaroni and cheese and study of our founders and what they wanted for us…I’m back. Dammit. Read more about it here.

The staffer’s name is Stephanie Caballero, a regional field director in the Houston Obama office. She laughs and says “it’s cool” that the undercover operative wants to vote in both Florida and Texas, using absentee ballots.

Later in the video, Obama operatives encourage people who want to vote more than once for Obama to take as many voter registration forms as they want to do this repeatedly.

The Ministry of Truth that is the national media in this country keeps trying to pretend that voter fraud does not happen…but Democrats push this stuff all the time.

I saw this firsthand on the ground during the 2008 presidential primaries where the Obama campaign actively sought every means possible to commit voter fraud to land Obama the nomination…and in the general election that followed the Obama campaign encouraged his supporters (especially college kids living in states apart from their parents) to vote by absentee ballot wherever their permanent address was but then to also vote again in whatever state they were in on election day.

Since Democrats keep blocking efforts for the states to communicate with one another and compare voter registration logs, Obama supporters are able to vote twice (or as much as they want, really) by gaming the absentee ballot system and exploiting its major security flaws.

It’s beyond frustrating to see this keep happening.

The reason for that is because Minitru doesn’t want any of this covered…because voter fraud helps Democrats.

Here’s something YOU can do between now and the election on November 6th that would cause Barack Obama a lot of problems…START TELLING EVERYONE YOU KNOW ABOUT THE DEMOCRATS’ VOTER FRAUD EFFORTS.

I’m going to be in the field today interviewing some sources for something major I’m writing about — probably the biggest story to ever land in my lap. After that, I’m going to checkout the “Occupy Unmasked” movie and appreciate Andrew Breitbart’s very last major project [UPDATE: Of course, it’s not playing anywhere near Illinois…just Texas and a few other places far away; I ordered the DVD though and can report on it when it arrives here]. There’s a good chance I will have a Chick-Fil-A sandwich at some point, too, since I’ll be in that general vicinity in the suburbs. I am a gay guy who is all about the supporting Chick-Fil-A and its delicious lunch offerings.

If you have any time today, can you help us by researching Voter Fraud?

I want to become an expert on the topic because I’m sick of American elections being more riddled with fraud than a third world banana republic’s (worse than a strip mall Gap’s, even). I have it on good authority that if voter fraud was eliminated in Cook County, Illinois alone that Democrats would lose 3% of their vote share in Chicagoland…which would be enough for Republicans to win the state…and even for Romney to beat Obama here in November.

Just imagine that…eliminating voter fraud in Chicago and obliterating all efforts by the unions, the Black Panthers, ACORN’s offspring, and other wrongdoers to circumvent election laws in the most corrupt state in the union.

Great Merciful Zeus, that would be like taking the fight right to the Hellmouth under Sunnydale and wiping all vampires and demons out with Buffy and her Scooby gang. I am so never going to stop making Buffy jokes, no matter how far into the past its series finale slips.

Anything you can dig up on voter fraud, just insert in comments on this thread…let’s keep it to things from January 2012 to the present. If you don’t like posting comments, you can email us the links you find at HillBuzz@gmail.com.

If you like surfing the net and can spare some time to hit the Bing with some searches, you would be a great help to our efforts!

I have something very special cooking up for Halloween, beginning October 1st, and the only way I can pull it off is if I have enough material on voter fraud on our archive page to make it work. It’s the kind of thing that would have totally made the sorting hat put me into Slytherin House, but in a good way (for those wondering, Justin’s definitely a Ravenclaw). Am I allowed to mix Buffy and Harry like this? Why yes. Yes, I am.

THANKS in advance for whatever you can find…and wish me luck in the field with my interviews (stay tuned this afternoon for my report on what I learn).

I’m a radio nerd, always have been and always will be. WLS-AM is one of the oldest talk stations in the country. It broadcasts over 3 states and has the best programming around. If you’re anywhere near Illinois, you’ve heard it. When I was 16, I used to get up at 5:30am and take my dad’s car to Dunkin’ Donuts for a coffee just so I could listen to the news of the day before I was trapped in high school hell. Don and Roma woke me up every morning and I would sit in that white Jeep before the sun was even up sipping my coffee with cream and chuckling at Don Wade’s tirades. How many teenagers do you know set the alarm to hang out with talk show hosts? I was weird, I admit it…still am.

I’ve had a dream for as long as I can remember to be on the air. Not as a DJ, not a weather girl, not a news announcer, but as a talk show host (and if you ask my parents, I was born to do it because I never stop talking naturally!) I worked in administrative positions in the radio industry learning everything I could about it. When my family came I gave up a lot of that ambition to just be a mom and be here for my girls. Needless to say, it requires a lot of sacrifice and coupon clipping which is beyond tiring. It’s not fun to worry about how you can feed your family on one salary these days with gas prices climbing and food prices following.

The other day, I was standing in my kitchen chopping something and I heard an advertisement on WLS to submit an MP3 of what you would do if you were a talk show host and the winner would get a trip to Mexico and a 2 hour talk show program on WLS! If there was ever a contest made for me, this was it. I’ve never entered a contest in my life but I entered this one and sure enough I made the Top 10! Getting noticed in a top 3 market is next to impossible and yet here is my chance for the GM and production staff to hear what I can do on the greatest station in this state.

Last week, I was appalled at what I witnessed at a public meeting of the Illinois Board of Elections and have been fuming over it ever since.

I went down to the Thompson Center here in Chicago to hear Sharon Meroni of DEFENDtheVOTE.com speak to the Board and was disgusted by the rude and dismissive way she was treated — most especially by Board Chair William McGuffage and Vice Chair Jesse Smart (who I’m now — and forever — calling “the ironically-named Mr. Smart”). At the Board Meeting, McGuffage kept telling Meroni to, essentially, shut up about voter fraud already and in so many words said that the Board is fully aware of all the fraud that takes place in Illinois elections — and they don’t much care.

The ironically-named Mr. Smart (just rolls off the tongue, doesn’t it?) threw a tantrum at the start of the meeting, insisting that Meroni and other members of the public were not allowed to film the proceedings. Mr. Smart, though Vice Chair of the Board, had evidently never heard of the Illinois Open Meetings Act — which requires meetings like this to be open to the public where anyone can film using whatever recording device he or she wishes. Smart very stupidly wasted close to ten minutes’ of Meroni’s allotted speaking time arguing with her about her right to film the meeting…until the Board’s General Counsel had to step in and shout Smart down so Meroni could proceed.

Do you know what Smart did then? He pouted, folded his arms, and said, “Well, if you’ll be filming this then I just won’t say nothing ’cause you might try to make me look stupid or something”. He then spent the remainder of the meeting passing notes and giggling with the woman sitting next to him, like they were in junior high school sex ed class and couldn’t contain their immaturity.

Another Board Member. Harold Byers, slept through most of the meeting; at one point, I was actually concerned he had died, until I started following a small feather or dust bunny that zoomed around his head, riding his exhales and inhales like those paragliders I’ve seen at cliffside vacation resorts. When he finally awoke, near the end of the meeting, he was incredibly well-rested but intensely grumpy. Soon after he moved for the meeting to be adjourned. I think that was because he was late for his scheduled nap somewhere else in the building.

Absolutely NONE of the people on the Illinois Board of Elections took any of what Meroni came to speak about seriously.

Meroni has prepared a detailed report on all sorts of election fraud that’s rampant in Illinois — including dead people voting, people voting in the names of cartoon characters, illegal aliens running polling centers and casting ballots unlawfully, electronic voting machines stealing votes, and labor unions deliberately leaving boxes of ballots unsecured at various “processing points” so that elections can turn out the way political parties want them to.

Meroni’s testimony was riveting — so it truly astonishes me the Board of Elections could so blatantly ignore he (or sleep through her presentation).

Honestly, I want to make it one of my missions in life to shame these people…and to shame Governor Quinn so badly that he’s ultimately forced to replace every current Board Member with someone who will actually do his or her job.

I’ve been working with my boyfriend Justin on putting together a graphic that captures the spirit of voter fraud and the battle to eliminate it. The above is what we’ve come up with so far. It’s going to be part of a larger banner we’re making for a very special project.

What do you think of it so far?

Does it communicate “Voter Fraud” and problems with our elections quickly and clearly to someone glancing at it?

The first step to shaming every last member of the do-nothing, sleeps-through-meetings, dumber-than-rocks Illinois Board of Elections is to make it ridiculously clear how messed up the elections system is here in Illinois and how much voter fraud runs rampant in Chicagoland in particular.
